Sail with one of the UK’s most historic sailing ships for an epic leg of the world famous international youth festival, The Tall Ships Races. 21st July – 1st August 2025, we will be sailing from Aberdeen, Scotland to Kristiansand, Norway, for an amalgamated Race 3 and Cruise-in-Company. This 12-day voyage combines the excitement of a racing leg with the camaraderie among fellow vessels and exploratory spirit of a cruise-in-company.
You’ll have the chance to really get to know the boat, and explore the coast of Norway. Aberdeen, known as the Granite City, is one of Scotland’s most important ports and famous for its grand and ornate architecture. Kristiansand is a cosmopolitan and picturesque city in southern Norway, combining urban café culture with palm tree beaches. As well as competing in the race, you will also have the opportunity to take part in all the festivities associated with the Tall Ships Races, including the Crew Parade and Crew Party (and more besides). As a smaller vessel with 17 crew (5 responsible crew and 12 trainees), you form a tight-knit community from day 1.
